These guys were responsible for creating the incredible geodesic dome adorned with amazing water jet cut panels used for some workshops and chill space at night! They are most notably responsible for The Spectrum Stage, made famous at Motion Notion Festival in Golden, BC. We got to work with them a couple years back on their biggest version of their stage to date, and made some quality friends! Can't wait to do it again in the future ;)

Episode 29 is from Astral Harvest 2016, where we sit down and have a brief chat with Jordan Andrews of Edmonton, AB, AKA Flavours!

This was recorded immediately following his set at The Interstelevator, and was an absolute pleasure! Jordan is an incredibly talented turntablist, and we highly recommend digging in and checking out his music. If you're lucky enough to be in a city where he's playing, don't miss it. Trust us <3

This episode features our two good friends Colton & Dayna, recorded on site at The Pirate Party 2016 in Montana!

A renegade pirate ship school bus sound stage makes an appearance near the end of the episode and blasts us with some decibels for added effect, so be ready ;)

We hosted quite an extraordinary pair of humans for this episode, Mya "AppleCat" and Ian MacKenzie of the Amplify Her documentary film/motion comic project coming out later this year!

We were personally on cloud 9 this whole weekend, as we curated a New Years Eve event where we hosted many of our favourite producers while representing the record label in which most of them are a part of, Gravitas Recordings!

We got to witness the ZEE project for the first time, and thankfully they were able to stay in Calgary long enough for us to sit down and do a full 2 hour episode of the podcast! It was beyond wonderful to connect on this level, and discuss all things involved in the ZEE project, as well as other ventures these two are involved in such as the Secular Psychedelic Movement group on facebook, and Peter's various visual projects which encompass everything from hackers conventions to touring with Sphongle.

We went in depth talking hardware and guitar rigs, festivals all over North America, and all things in between!

*** Seems there was far too much copyright content for YouTube to allow us to have this episode hosted there, which is a shame because the video took 9 hours to render and another 7 to upload to YouTube >_<.

Onward and akward, enjoy the audio recording, hopefully it won't meet the same fate!
